2 papers, a presentation, and final project for a bull**** class. I won't be riding until summer begins.

Fortunately I spent the entire weekend and last weekend backpacking and road tripping throughout northern California.

I screwed around and waited on my brother in law to call back so Julie could hang with him during a ride for me. I cancelled. Going to get a friend at the airport and then hope to do an urban ride.

I'm working 1/2 day. Getting ready to go ride a "big xc ride" in the next hour or so but like Narlus I don't think a 1-2 hour ride is all that big but it was the closest option.

Did about an hour and a half MTB ride with Tweek. It was 93 degrees and humid and I decided to go singlespeed. I suffered but it was good to be back to one gear again :)
 
I'm playing yard slave this weekend planting the vegetable garden. Went into town last night on the three speed for a beer run and some general wandering on the way back - that old bike is a lot of work pedaling up hills.

Hope to get out for some XC this weekend - we'll see...

Edit:

Actually got a ride in! Nice crop of mosquitos and deer flies out there...

I will go to the park with the fam later. I didn't get to ride on Saturday on the count of rain. Will make up for it next weekend I home.

I hope to get a training ride in tonight too.

Hard to believe you were back from The US Open in time to squeeze in a ride!

Yet another quality PNW river forest ride. Little sloppy and wet, with slick bridges, roots, and rocks. Par for the course.

Next week i hope to finally bag the vaunted McKenzie River Trail.

Spent all day Whistler for the first time this year. It was in prime condition, and besides crashing twice and putting a huge dent in my rear rim, I had a blast. Now we'll see how I feel in the morning.
